I have this happen when the game gets input from one of my twitchy joysticks. Do you have another joystick/controller plugged into the computer that might be sending a signal?
To turn that off go into the in game options and disable the joystick input.
Click Menu -> Options (You may need to click on Menu with the mouse and hit the "O" key on the keyboard if the menu is closing too quickly). Once the Options window is open go to the 'Controls' tab and there is a section for Joystick. Try setting Joystick Input to "Disabled". If it is already disabled, then enable it and disable again. Then hit Apply Now.

In the chatbox, type /bug "Name your bug here" and hit Enter. In the box that pops up, fill in the details and hit the Submit button.
Petitions are similar except that you use /petition instead of /bug.
As far as trying to troubleshoot the cause of your problems, well, my Magic 8-Ball broke due to me shaking it furiously trying to solve peoples problems with no information.
My recommendation to get assistance would be to post a log from running CoH Helper as it will give information about your system and the CoH installation and settings.
Then, post a log from running HijackThis. This will show what else is going on on your computer while you are playing CoH.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Are you using a Fatal1ty mouse by chance? 
ohhh joystick... perhaps thats it...
as far as other info that might help? Im really not sure what you mean.. Vista 64, logitech mouse..
I did the vista upgrades recomended in the sticky with editing my reg, Not sure if ill still get my lost vid driver crash, But thats what started the whole prob this time.
Btw is there a keyboard command to open options menu? Perhaps ill just unplug joystick and see if that fixes it. Saitek aviator, with most recent drivers or win update site.
Also speaking of drivers, I updated with the latest of Nvidia's site, 190.62, also now getting a microsoft service pack 2 DL as well, this one poped AFTER i did a reg edit.. not sure if that had anything to do with it or not, or this is just a service pack 2 patch
this is random... i have no idea how to get it to stop, some days i log in and it happens, others it doesnt.. I did just upgrade my drivers and no luck.
any time i try to open a menu, Like Main menu (the one connected to your main character bar with health/xp ect..
chat menu, trying to switch global channels,, Or the chat bubble at the end of the bar, or try to combine insperations
Not sure if there are any others..
curser bug?
the menu closes in like a 1/2 second.. basically faster than i can click on anything no mater how hard i try. even if i done move the mouse at all and just click the same thing happens. Anyone know of a fix or why this is happening?
Its kinda game breaking when you cant combine insp, talk to people, play emotes and such or even log out to switch toons..
Yea i can work around all this stuff or just not use it, but still this is a very frusterating issue. But i cant even access the menu to send ina bug report and ask for help ingame.. *sigh
anyone??
